  Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include, but are not limited to, links to personal websites, links to websites with which you are affiliated (whether as a link in article text, or a citation in an article), and links that attract visitors to a website or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the page, please discuss it on the associated talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 19:48, 4 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Dear MrOllie
Thank you for your message and for maintaining Wikipedia's quality standards. I appreciate your dedication to keeping the platform free from inappropriate external links and ensuring that it remains a reliable source of information for users around the world.
I fully understand and respect the guidelines concerning inappropriate links, and I have no intention of adding any such links to Wikipedia. I aim to contribute to Wikipedia's mission of providing accurate and impartial knowledge to its users. If you have any concerns or come across any content that may not adhere to these guidelines, please do not hesitate to bring it to my attention or report it through the appropriate channels.
SO, please allow me to contribute toward Wikipedia, and also allow me to re-add it.
Please re-add the links that you have removed. It is my humble request to you.
Thank you
Best Regards

  Please stop. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings.

National varieties of English

edit

  Hello. In a recent edit, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.

In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Thank you. MrOllie (talk) 23:14, 5 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

  You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you insert a spam link, as you did at Furniture retailer. Persistent spammers may have their websites blacklisted, preventing anyone from linking to them from all Wikimedia sites as well as potentially being penalized by search engines. —Bruce1eetalk 10:53, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

I apologize for the confusion regarding the link insertion. My intention was solely to provide readers with valuable information from a reliable source related to Furniture retailer. Regrettably, it seems that my attempt to enhance the article was misconstrued as spam. I want to clarify that it was not my intention to violate any guidelines.
Could you kindly consider reinserting the links that were removed? I appreciate your understanding and cooperation. Manav5585sharma (talk) 19:06, 9 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
